HC Deb 13 March 1969 vol 779 c324W
46. Mr. van Straubenzee

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science how many organisations have been asked to give him their views on what should be included in a new Education Act; and by what date he has requested these views.

Mr. Edward Short

Forty-five bodies have now been invited to submit their preliminary views on desirable changes in the law. There is no time limit for these submissions, but I have expressed the hope that I might receive these views by Easter.
